TANDEMKROSS’s family of Cornerstones is growing! Introducing the Cornerstone Rotary Safety for Ruger® 10/22®.
Cross bolt safeties—otherwise known as push-button safeties—are nothing new and are easy to use. That doesn’t mean they can’t be improved. To activate the factory push-button safety, the operator just pushes the button one direction or the other to toggle between SAFE and FIRE. While not difficult to do, there are two key things that could be improved upon.
Firstly, depending on what side of the firearm you are standing on, the only person who can visually confirm the SAFE or FIRE state of the firearm is the user. Secondly, regardless of whether you are left-handed or right-handed, you must break your grip at least once to bring the firearm from a state of SAFE or FIRE to the other and back.
An ambidextrous rotary safety addresses both of these primary concerns with a single upgrade! A safety selector with levers on both sides of the firearm visibly shows a clear difference between SAFE and FIRE to the user and those standing nearby. The RSOs at your local range and matches are sure to love you for it. Plus, you can now toggle between SAFE and FIRE while maintaining a positive grip on the firearm with your shooting hand; right-handed or left-handed!
Additionally, a toggle-style safety selector reduces the possibility of an accidental button push. Resting your firearm on an uneven surface could potentially switch a cross bolt safety from the intended SAFE or FIRE position to its unintended opposite. A rotary safety reinforces that any change in the firearm’s state must be intentional and thus helps make it safer.
Cornerstone Safeties have been wildly popular for the Ruger® Mark IV™ and Mark IV™ 22/45™ and are now also available for the PC Carbine™ and PC Charger™. The Cornerstone Rotary Safety for Ruger® 10/22® was once only available when installed in the Manticore Trigger Assembly, but it can be yours today!
You and your firearm both deserve an upgrade that makes your life easier. Grab an ambidextrous Cornerstone Rotary Safety for Ruger® 10/22® and make your good gun great!
Are you looking for a way to simplify the install of your Cornerstone? Then you should grab the Gunsmither™ Safety Tool for Ruger® 10/22®!

10/22 Rotary Safety
If you own a 10/22 spend the money and get this system. I have never been a fan of push button safeties, this Rotary Safety works great. The only thing I found to be a problem was during the removal of the factory Safety while turning as per instruction I turned it the wrong way...oops. But all is good. Buy it.

Cornerstone Rotary Safety
This item works wonderfully, went to the range yesterday and got to try it out, much easier to use than the original safety pin. There is no doubt when your rifle is on safe with this safety device.

Great setup
Parts are machined well and fit excellent. Good YouTube videos for instructions. Be sure to watch the video all the way (or prepare to fight the safety spring). Would highly recommend!

Great Upgrade! But....
Great upgrade for everyone, but especially southpaws. Seems to function as advertised. I struggled with the install, not sure if it was me or just the BX trigger. I had a heck of a time getting the old safety to rotate on the detent. Just a thing to be aware of, it might not go as smooth as shown in the video.

New favorite upgrade

Rotary Safety
New rotary safety was super easy to install and is a huge improvement from the stock safety. It is also a great visual cue for others as you clearly tell what position it is in.

Wow!
Wow, what an upgrade! This is the safety Ruger (or [TK]) should of developed years ago. It is easier to operate. Shows that your firearm is at ready or its safe. Easy to install if you watch the video & take your time. If you like to tinker w/your trigger group (as i do), only time will tell how the attachment screws will hold up
